    Jermaine Dupri says anyone who believes the ‘Burn’ hitmaker talks about contracting sexually transmitted disease in the upcoming studio album ‘is tripping.’
    Feb 27, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Usher poured his heart out in his upcoming album “Confessions Part 3”. However, fans were distracted by his lyrics that narrated his visit to emergency room because of a “sickness.” They’re convinced he sang about his herpes in the song.
    As the singer was trolled on the internet, his longtime producer Jermaine Dupri came to his defense. He vehemently denied the subtle reference to his alleged STD, “I see y’all trippin… CONFESSIONS PART 3 is from a females perspective.”
    Dupri claimed, “The song is about a girl cheatin’ on him and getting’ pregnant by another man. She is then being stuck with the decision to keep or abort it. Now that he knows, Should he stay or Leave ???”

    Usher was sued by multiple women in the past for allegedly exposing them to sexually transmitted disease after engaging in unprotected sex with the star. In leaked court documents, he reached a settlement with one of the women for $1.1 million.
    “Remember that time I was sitting up sick, couldn’t sleep in the middle of the night?” he sang in his new album. “You said bae let me take you to the ER, I said, ‘Nah, Ima be aight’ / Well the next day I found out from f**king around that the sickness I had was life / And I was fixed with the decision to keep it, knowing I had to get rid of it.”
    “I would do anything to get your trust back,” he continued. “Realise that we’re both wrong / No more lies we can move on / If you lose that trust you built for so long / Now that’s the test to see if you’re strong.”
    Usher hasn’t responded to the herpes song rumors, but in the past, he vehemently denied he’s a carrier of the herpes virus.

    Usher Performs at Staples Center to Pay Tribute to Kobe Bryant

    WENN

    The ‘Confessions’ singer delivers a moving performance of ‘Amazing Grace’ before the Los Angeles Lakers match against the Portland Trail Blazers to honor the late NBA star.
    Feb 2, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Usher sung a stunning tribute to honour Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant as the team returned to the court on Friday, January 31, 2020 to play their first game since their former teammate lost his life in a helicopter crash last Sunday.
    The NBA (National Basketball Association) player was one of nine people killed in the incident – alongside his 13-year-old daughter Gianna, who was also a talented basketball player.
    Following the shock news, tributes have poured in for the sportsman, and as his former team resumed business on Friday, after cancelling a planned game earlier this week, they made sure to honour their pal.
    For the match against the Portland Trail Blazers, every seat inside Los Angeles’ Staples Center was covered with a shirt featuring one of Kobe’s numbers – 8 and 24 – and two chairs on the players’ row of chairs were adorned with his and his late daughter’s jerseys.

    While warming up for the game, the team wore Kobe’s jersey, and Usher made an appearance, dedicating a rendition of gospel classic “Amazing Grace” to his memory.
    Kobe’s initials KB were also placed on the edge of the court and his numbers were written out in flower petals.

    Following news of Kobe’s death, Usher led the stars campaigning for the NBA to change its logo to honour the five-time NBA champion writing, “Couldn’t be a better time or all around athlete and person for it #changethelogo.”
    Meanwhile, his ex-teammates LeBron James and Anthony Davis honoured their late pal with new tattoos. LeBron got a snake in reference to Kobe’s Black Mamba nickname, with the words “Mamba 4 Life” on his left thigh, with Anthony opting for a similar design.
